Renewable and Nonrenewable resources are types of natural resources.

Renewable resources are those resources that can be replaced and renewed naturally such as air, wind whereas nonrenewable resources are those resources that cannot be replaced naturally such as coal, natural gas.

Human behavior has affected the natural resources and its quality. burning of fossil fuels by the human has affected the natural resources by releasing chemicals and toxic substances in the environment. Deforestation, land construction and mining activities have disturbed the ecosystem and natural resources. A large number of factories and vehicle used by the human has affected the natural resources as it affects the natural quality and increase in the demand for fossil fuels has resulted in depletion of the limited resources.
